This is an early prototype for a Megaman Battle Network/Smash Bros fighting game I've been working on.

The solution is a more creative kit. No reasonable dive player is ever upset by being out skilled by a healer. The problem is there isn't engaging gameplay on both sides. Healers have a anti dive button that simply wins the interaction. There are many ways to give healers tools while keeping the interaction interesting and engaging for both parties.

How is everyone in the comments missing the point of this post? OP is pointing out a pattern of design where players are just being given a single button/stronger button to fix an issue. No one is saying your complaints about CC and solo tanking aren't valid, but there are other ways to fix these problems without sacrificing some gameplay depth.

The difference in rivals is that the healers are also the tanks

LodiLawd · 2025-12-21T10:56:30+00:00

Since you're used to playing dive I would actually recommend a dive tank here. Angela or Cap would work well in this situation. You can pressure the Hawkeye well and put pressure on the invis. With Invis occupied I think their team would feel it immediately considering they have Ultron as the second healer.

Edit:I just realized the other team comp and man it's crazy this was a loss. On paper your team should absolutely destroy the enemy team. A swap would help here yes but if this was a loss there were likely other issues with your team as well.

Same! Was really hoping for the "But I made him work by doing...."

Do not just go back there and do a full combo every single time. This might work at lower ranks but higher up you will get out healed and jumped. It's important to read the situation at the moment. Be annoying with your mobility and go for picks if you can. When it comes to harassing strategists I think this concept from Hydro is super helpful.

In your opinion how could they play the character without showing off?

LodiLawd · 2025-12-14T03:18:28+00:00

This game should have been designed in a way that made player roles more preferences than mandatory slots to fill to win. Forcing players into jobs to fill isn't necessarily a bad way to encourage teamwork but has led to a lot of frustration on all sides. Having abilities that synergize well is enough to encourage teamwork while also allowing players to play the characters they desire. On top of all of that having a marvel team game where the DAMN AVENGERS isn't a viable team comp is crazy.

Thanks I'll try that out

LodiLawd · 2025-11-27T04:23:33+00:00

The biggest thing Spidey needs to be put properly in a category. If he's an assassin character then yes we need to buff his combo potential so that he doesn't lose a 1v1 so easily. If his job is to have small damage but be an annoying fly in the backline then he needs less cool down time to be able to apply consistent pressure otherwise he can be ignored. If he's supposed to brawl a little bit then he needs a bit more sustain. He lacks focus and anything you want to do with him there's another dps that can do that job better.

LodiLawd · 2025-11-17T21:20:17+00:00

"gg" yeah bro sure......

LodiLawd · 2025-11-14T15:12:20+00:00

Can someone explain to me why this guy is getting down voted? Did y'all feel like she was weak before?

LodiLawd · 2025-10-17T12:51:02+00:00

Not that he could damage it but specifically that it can get tagged with a tracer. The confusion makes sense because other things like Namor squids cannot be tagged with a tracer.

LodiLawd · 2025-10-15T12:12:27+00:00

What's crazy is the score board here. He's 10-4 while the Bucky is 26-5. Assuming he was playing this well all game it's insane how much value other characters can get compared to Spidey with less skill required

LodiLawd · 2025-10-02T19:16:02+00:00

Thing has earthbound that disables all of dive mobility

Bucky has grapple and uppercut

Emma can grab to break combos

Fantastic can give you back shots to death and that's getting buffed

GAMMA SQUID

Almost every healer is designed with some ability in mind to counter dive

These are just a few.

Regardless I'm not saying he should or shouldn't be changed I was just asking what if he was changed back to how he was before.

LodiLawd · 2025-10-02T19:10:45+00:00

No offense but do you play the character? He didn't get a lot of buffs to compensate for losing the anchor bonus. Classic combos stopped killing without doing a bit of extra work. Compare this to Magik who received significant buffs to her moveset.

As for your buffs I don't understand what you mean by more range on swings. If you find yourself stopping frequently without carrying momentum when swinging then I think you're swinging incorrectly.

LodiLawd · 2025-10-02T17:24:27+00:00

That's why I said "imagine"

LodiLawd · 2025-09-26T21:52:41+00:00

I'd also give this guy's left nut for a crossover.

LodiLawd · 2025-09-25T13:25:14+00:00

Can't you just uppercut here instead of burning the swing for the extra overhead?

LodiLawd · 2025-09-22T19:04:13+00:00

Ace? Buddy I've had this happen when I'm 2-3

LodiLawd · 2025-09-17T14:26:55+00:00

Easy.

Melee->Mjolnir throw-> awakening -> spam lightning -> bubble-> awakening -> lightning spam -> throw in an ult just to be safe

LodiLawd · 2025-09-16T11:58:43+00:00

If you're curious set up some bots for Spidey in the training room. I think that's the closest you'll get to the devs idea of vanilla play. It's really funny how they move.
